BRAINY TERENCE.

Mr.. Powderly has been credited
lately with saying: "Let me elect
the assessor, | care not who elects
the President" Well, he might
have the selection of the assessor, all
of the assessors, and he might select
the best possible men for assessors,
and still the same old system would
rob the producer, no matter who
assessed or collected the tax-no
matter how equitably it was assessed
or how honestly collected. Some
thing more important than able or
honest assessors are needed, Mr..
Powderly. South Vest.

SENATOR JOHN SWINTON.
He Accepts The Nomination from the
Labor Party.

The Progressive Labor Party of
the Seventh Senatorial District, New
York, comprising some of the AS
sembIy Districts which were deprived
OF their choice Of delegates to the
notorious Syracuse convention by the
carpet-bag delegates under the di-
rection of IL, George 4 Co., held a
nominating convention last Wednes-
day night, and the old veteran, John
Swlnton, was nominated, by unani-
nous vote, for State Senator. A
committee of three went out and
brought him to the meeting, where
he formally accepted the nomination
amid the cheers of the delegates.
The workingmen of the Seventh
Senatorial District can elect John
Swinton if they but half try, and the
Labor Party will do its utmost in
this district. The election of Mr..
Swlnton to the State Senate will be
fortunate event, as he will have
an opportunity to use his talents, and
John Swinton is too sterling man
to be influenced by the corruption
that is said to soil those who mingle
with the class of people usually
placed in power by the rotten politi-
cal parties.

GERMAN SOC.AL.DEMOCRACY.
A Successful and Harmonious Con-
greSs Held in Switzerland.


gress Held in Switzerland.
1t may seem strange to our read
ers that the German Labor Party
should hold conventions outside the
dominion of Kaiser Wilhelm, but
such is the the tenderness of the
German aristocracy that they fear
the politically organized workingmen
more than the French bourgeoisie,
and consequently they prohibit such
conventions. Nevertheless, the
sturdy Social-Democrats make the
best of the situation and hold their
conventions where they can.
This years congress was held in
a suburb of a Swiss city, and was
attended by between seventy and
eighty aclegates. One of the first
acts was to censure the few men who
had allowed themselves to be fright
ened into flight by threatened pun
ishment from the authorities, and
a resolution was unanimously adopt
ed making it a duty of members to
stand their ground in the face of
threatened prosecution.
A rising vote of thanks to Ameri-
can comrades was taken for financial
aid rendered.
"No compromise" with other par
ties was unanimously decided upon,
and the attitude of Social Democracy
towards the anarchists was plainly
defined. Anarchism was denounced
as ant-socialistic, ''atomizing," and
absolutely unassimilative with mod
ern means of production. That
which poses before the world under
the name of anarchism, consists of
isolated fanatics whose reasoning
powers are below comparison with
their feelings, and, from the fact of
their isolation and small numbers,
they can attain to nothing consider
able even with exercise of the great
est courage and activity.
The session was a most important
one for the German Social Demo
cracy, as the internal affairs of the
Party were thoroughly discussed, and
proper action taken. The members
of the Party will be fully informed
of the proceedings of the Congress,
Notwithstanding the spy and police
system that disgraces the German
empire.

the shooting down of workingmen
by the police.
On cross-cyamination he testified
that nothing was said as to when this
plan was to be carried out. Nothing
was said as to using bombs at the
lIaymarket. He did not look for q
conflict at the Haymarket. The
meeting was to be called simply to
cheer one anotAer" up, and to
protest against Il recurrence of the
affair that day (Monday) at McCor-
mlck's factory, where numbe" of
workingmen had been shot and
clubbed by the police.
Surely there was nothing very
damaging or definite about this tes-
tlmony. Nothing here to substan-
tiate the statement by the supreme
court that it was evident the massa-
ere of the lIaymarket was planned
at the Monday night meeting.

USURPING AUTHORITY.
The Int. Typographical Unions Off
GERS Immitating POWderly.

The executive officers of the In
ternational Typographical Union
have assumed the authority to "sus-
pend" the ninc-hour law which was
passed by vote of the unions-actu-
ally the first piece of real democratic
law-making INDUCED in by this boss
and foreman-ridden organization.
This is the way to break up an or
ganization contempt for
its laws. The grand" officers take
advantage of the fact that the unions
cannot very well compel financial
aid in case they endeavor to enforce
the law in any locality. Let them
beware how they permit such usurp-
alton of authority to succeed.
Union is necessary, but united sup
port of autocrats is simply cowardice,
and will tend to degrade the craft.
Some of these days there may be a
real trades union of journeymen
printers without bosses and foreman
to hinder progress. Not that all
bosses and foreman are anti-union,
but there is such a thing as class
interest, and class-interest is potent
factor in any industry. The inter-
ests of employers and employees as
such are not identical.

TOO LATE.

1t is reported that the Executive
Board of the Knights of Labor has
receded from its position of antagon-
ism to the Cigarmakers, and will
now kindly permit them to join the
Order. Undoubtedly there isa view
to increasing the income so that the
Executive Board may continue its
gorgeous existence. But the reform
comes too late. The Cigarmakers'
International Union is good enough
just now for union cigarmakers.

THE BRASSWORkERS' STRIKE.

The lockout of the Brassworkers
in New York continues without any
apparent change or any signs of
weakness on the part of either the
men or the bosses. 1t was said at
the strikers headquarters the other
day that the chandelier makers
bosses held a conference one night
this week, at which they passed
resolution to the effect that none OF
the shops shall resume work unless
all ten shall be prepared to open at
the same time, with al least one
third of their usual working force.
The men are firm in their resolve
to preserve their union working
hours. They expect to win the
fight.
